JBL Flip 2: JBL Flip II. Can't find any compatible battery for replacement

Tue, 27 Sep 2022 02:55:33 -0700

Hi all. My JBL Flip II has a AEC653055-2P battery inside (3 pin connector, 3.7V, 2000mAh). All batteries i found on internet have 5 pin connector and different size.

Anyone can help me?

UPDATE 03/04/2019

I contacted Ifixit as suggested. They confirm batteries in the store have 5-pin connector.

So I’m at starting point. Can’t find replacement for my battery.

UPDATE 06/04/2019

I will try to modify the JN151PH13849 battery to 3-pin connector and see if it works.

I bought JBL flip2 back in 2015. It is still working fine with old smartphones, but with the latest smartphones I bought recently, like 4-5 months back, its unable to be recognized. It seems the bluetooth protocols have been modified/enhanced and not compatible now.

JBL Flip 2: The Fabric Grill cover is loose.

Sun, 06 Jan 2019 11:47:31 -0700

Hi,

I opened the fabric grill cover of JBL Flip to clean off the dust.

All done.

Now when I put the fabric cover back, all stubs of cover right in place on the body, the cover doesn't fit fix. It is somewhat little loose at one of the longer sides (when Flip is horizontal)

I removed it, squeezed the cover and then tried again. But the cover is still little loose.

JBL Flip 2: Can someone identify this component Please... A6 A

Sat, 24 Feb 2018 17:28:23 -0700

JBL Flip 2

A standard charging port replacement went south when the centre screw removed this component from the main board.

Its designation is D9 on the board and printed with A6 A, I believe its a Diode but not sure what other properties it has.

my knowledge on components is that of a three year old monkey.. I can replace and solder, but how or why it works is beyond me.. some sort of magic I presume..

Its situated next to the centre screw hole on the main board, and without this the unit wont turn on or charge unless you hold the power button down, when you release it, the speaker turns off with a loud pop..

Any help on this would be much appreciated..

Many Thanks

Paul
